Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures (Xbox 360)

...something undeniably appealing about the Lego series of games. I loved playing with Lego when I was a kid, and the opportunity to see classic movie moments played out in mime by Lego figures as if being re-enacted by six year olds is one I'm sure most people will enjoy. While this may feel like "Lego Star Wars" in all but name, there is still plenty in the game that fans of the films will find to enjoy - whether they are kids or adults who want a ...
...all charmingly played out in Lego figures; throughout the entire game not one word of dialogue is spoken, with all the action in cut-scenes provided by wonderfully animated mime sequences. The first time you play a level, you will be presented with the "story mode", which, as the name suggests, means you play through the plot of the relevant section of the movie storyline with the appropriate characters. There are usually two, but sometimes three, ...

Review of Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures (Xbox 360)

...At the end of my Lego star Wars 2 review for the PS2 I urged Lucas Arts to make Lego IJ…imagine my excitement when Saturday 07/06/2008 came around. Every now and again my outside life and relationships go down the pan because I get completely engrossed in a task or some form of geeky endeavour. The majority of 2007 was taken up with Lego Star Wars 2, and the start of 2008 [Sic. all of 2008: ongoing] was taken up with Halo 3. So, here I am again ...
...kids!!! Sound familiar? Lego Stars Wars? No!!!!! LEGO INDIANA JONES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Note: To my fiancée Liz...if you don't see me for the next few months I want you to know that I love you very much. [Incidentally, Liz bought me this game, so you're all witnesses to prove that when she divorces me we can blame her]. Pre-Review [not really a preview…more of a pre review, post preface note…got it?] In 1977 George Lucas & Lucas Arts raised the bar ...

...from the LEGO. TIP: When you are running away from the huge boulder at the start, don't turn around and try to punch it. That Lego won't smash. However this game still has all the excellent humour and superb game play. Worth the money. ASIN: B00140G0VI Greg ...

Review of Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures (Xbox 360)

The previous LEGO games successfully focused on the StarWars trilogy but now they've turned their attention to the Indiana Jones franchise. Fortunately this game still has all the quirky humor and great gameplay that was present in the LEGO StarWars games. You play as Indiana and travel thorough jungles, mountains and lava filled caves searching for the world's most valuable treasures. Being a big fan of the films I did notice some irregularities ...
...LEGO. Just like the LEGO StarWars games there are no voiceovers in cut scenes so people unfamiliar with the films may get a little confused about what is going on. But the cut scenes are excellently done with some laugh out loud moments. The singleplayer is split up into three parts; each part represents one of the original films. After the first film (raider of the lost ark) has been completed, you are then able to unlock new characters and create ...

Review of Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures (Xbox 360)

Lego Indiana Jones is a great game for the Xbox 360. There is loads to do and lots of items to collect with studs (the currency) like in Lego Star Wars, artefacts which are like minikits and there is even some bonus levels too. The game is similar to Lego Star Wars but I think this is what makes it so good. In the game there are lots of references to Lego Star Wars and there are some funny moments too. The graphics are great and the levels almost ...
...most objects are made from Lego is really clever and looks brilliant. The sound is not great, but why not play some music on your console if you want good music. The characters have little mumbles to represent what they are saying. The game has a lot puzzles which you need to complete to carry on or unlock something. This is game is best when played multiplayer and it had the feature that lets you drop in and out so you can carry on the level if ...

Review of Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures (Xbox 360)

After getting addicted to Lego Star Wars on the PC, I spotted Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures demo on the XboX Marketplace - so I just had to download it and give it a try! On a High Definition TV in the capable hands of an XboX 360, this game just popped out of the screen! The graphics were fantastic, the movie score soundtrack which was taken from the films made 'The Original Adventures' more enjoyable. As you play the game you'll soon ...
...smashing up the lego environment collecting lego coins that scatter all over the screen, but you'll be taking a trip down memory lane acting out scenes from your favourite Indian Jones childhood movies! Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures is a classic platform adventure, where you can unlock various movie characters - all of which have special features and abilities that you will require later on to unlock even more of the games content. ...

Review of Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures (Xbox 360)

We got this game with our xbox along with Kung Fu Panda, and I must say most of christmas day was spent with me and my husband playing it!! Its best for two people to play at the same time, and requires you to work togther in a team to suceed, we have yet to complete the game, and some of the levels are a little difficult, but its very fun!! :-) Basically its "Indiana Jones" and one of his little friends helping him along the way to suceed in challenges. ...
...seen any of the films or know what any of them are about, but I didnt find this mattered to me when playing thr game, I thought it would be very boring if you had never seen the films and werent a fan, but not at all, its very very fun!! And is great for both kids and adults alike, and the fact you can play in muliplayer mode is even better as it means if you have two children there shouldn't be too many rows over who is playing when!!!!! ...
